I'm joined by Michelle Rex and Joanne McNabb from Cameron Ventures Group, winner of the
00:08
West Suffolk Council Investing in West Suffolk Award. Congratulations to you, well to both
00:15
of you but the entire team. Is a lot of you here tonight to celebrate?
00:18
Yeah, there's a few of us. We've got a couple of team members.
00:22
Tell us more about the Cameron Ventures Group. So it's hotels, that's right, the Priory and
00:26
Bury St Edmunds also?
00:27
The Priory and Bury St Edmunds and Ravenwood which is in Ruffham. We've also got Cedars
00:33
Hotel and Stone Market and then some of those in Suffolk too.
00:39
And Joanne, tell us about in particular the training programme that you've got for Ukrainians
00:44
who have fled from the war.
00:45
Well we've just, you know, sort of employed as many as we can and just offered basic training
00:50
that we offer in the hotels but I mean they've really taken to it and you know it's working
00:54
out really well for us, for all of us.
00:56
Is it a family founded business? Am I right in thinking that?
00:59
Yes, it is. Yeah, by Kelly and Brian Keane.
01:01
Tell us a bit more about the story, the history behind the group.
01:06
So Cameron Ventures Group was founded in 1999 by Brian Keane. He bought his first hotel
01:12
which was Riverside House Hotel in Mildenhall. He was given a very good opportunity when
01:16
he was younger and then he now passes on that opportunity to his team as well and he's very
01:22
enthusiastic and he's a great employer.
01:23
It's a good job you read the website just before you came here. Look at that, there's
01:28
excellent research and knowledge.
01:31
And what have you made of tonight? Have you enjoyed yourselves?
01:33
Yeah, it's been a really good night. Yeah, it's good to see all the local businesses,
01:37
you know, all pulling together.
01:39
Well the night is but young so enjoy the rest of it. Congratulations.
01:44
Thank you.
01:45
Thank you.
